Our ‘Hats and Hair for Haiti’ day on Friday 12th February raised just over £412 for the Haiti appeal. The Year 5s organised the day and pupils paid £1 to wear their own clothes. There was a great array of fun hats and ‘hair-dos’! The Year 5s also arranged different competitions, at 10p a go. Thankyou to everyone who supported the day. We raised more money than we’d hoped for and had a lot of fun doing so!

Many congratulations to Mr Chris Waters, our brass and woodwind teacher. On 10th November, Chris was awarded the Classic FM Music Teacher of the Year award at the Royal Albert Hall. Chris works in 6 West Sussex schools and has chosen Midhurst Primary School to receive £5000 prize money to spend on musical instruments for the school. Well done Mr Waters and THANKYOU!

Our ‘Dream Mile’, held on Friday July 10th was a great success. The event, organised by Mrs Clarke and her Year 3 class, was enjoyed by the whole school. Children and staff took part in walking, running, ‘three-legged’ walking or scootering their mile. Many of the children and adults wore Fancy Dress to add to the fun. So far, we have raised over £2000 for the ‘Dreams Come True’ charity! And we still have some pledged money to collect. Well done to everyone who took part and a special THANKYOU to Year 3 for all their hard work and good ideas.
